is this a lie about what mohammed said?
Mohammed said: "Circumcision is a sunnah for the men and makrumah for the women". The term sunnah here means that it is conform to the tradition of Mohammed himself, or simply a custom at the time of Mohammed. The term makrumah is far from clear but we can translate it into a honorable deed.

When I first became a member at my church I had an indiscretion with another member, an older male, who was familiar with our Pastor. I confided in my Pastor and he told other members. Now I have to be in a church where I am shunned. I have had to withdraw from interracting with other members. Now the Pastor is extremely cold towards me because for some reason he listens to other people he is familiar with. I would prefer if there is an issue that he would speak to me about it.

The Holy Ghost is on the earth.

The Spirit of God is Father at the throne.

The Body of God is Jesus Christ, also in heaven.

Three yet one Jesus is God, Jesus walks into and out of God at the throne, leaves all that extra power at the throne with the father,and walks amoung the people his people in heaven.

I have learned of a new theory; that the god of the old testament is not the same as the god of the new testament. According to this idea; the god of old was actually named "Elohim" and created man to be his slaves.

Christ's father, was supposed to be a different god, the "real" god. Supposedly, Jesus even said in the bible that his father was not the god of old, or something to that effect. It would certainly explain the discrepancy between the vengeful, wrathful god of old, and the peaceful god of the new testament....

Has anyone ever heard of this theory? Does anyone have any more information in regard to this?

Is it a sin to worship your favorite singers/artists even if you do worship God? I have a friend who worships one of her favorite singers and I have an acquaintence who worships her favorite rapper?

Me while I do enjoy knowing listening to my favorite artists, the person who I would worship the most is God and I think of God as my father and Jesus as my best friend and they're the people who I'm living for.

If God created everything and God makes no mistakes, then where did evil originate from? Evil needed a cause in order to exist.

In the King James Bible it is written:

"I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things" (Isaiah 45:7).

"Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? Shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?" (Amos 3:6)

In the New King James Bible, it is written:

"I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create calamity: I the LORD do all these things" (Isaiah 45:7).

The change from "evil" to "calamity" is also present in the New King James version of the Amos verse.

So I ask a few questions:

Why did the change occur?

If you agree more with "calamity" being in that verse, then where did evil come from?

If you say evil does not exist, then where did wickedness originate (God makes a reference to wickedness in Genesis)?

I am my most severe critic and try to be ethical as much as possible. Even by god's standard I'm a pretty good. I Don't drink, smoke, drug, covet my meighbor's wife, kill, swindle or abuse anyone. I'm civil in life and driving (:-) I'd give my shirt to someone in trouble. I just don't believe in myths. Now why would believers not find that enough? I have seen druglords with golden crucifix and killers supposedly repented. All the monsters in history could just say: I repent and be forgiven, but an atheist who tries to be a good, civic person is not good enough. Would god be a policeman? Would he have criteria to say that Hitler's or Rasputin'e repentance is more valuable than my own to the ones I have offended. Or is it only believers' intolerance?

I stole candybars from a store that I never told anyone about. It still bothers me when I think about it because it was so blatant and I just knew I was going to be caught but I wasn't.

I have a friend that goes to the Church of St. Peter, they wear inverted crosses(upside doen crosses). I have never heard of this, so I asked him why do you wear upside down crosses? He said that it is not Jesus on the cross, but Peter, because Peter requested to be crucified upside down, because he was not worthy to be crucified in the same manner as his Lord. Has anyone ever heard of this Church, or this manner of wearing a cross outside of Satanism?

So many people paint atheists as people who actively hate god and reject him because they are selfish and possibly evil-hearted, but what if someone is truely FEARFUL that they are being fed a lie.

What if that person never experienced any manisfestation of god or never came across any rational reason to believe that christianity was not a myth, as many secular historians would have you believe.

If the person would have loved god with all his heart if one of things had happened, but one of those things never did, wouldnt they be judged by their "heart", just like christian theology says that people who never experience christianity (early indians, people who never had christianity reach their culture, etc) do.

Think about it the only resaon homosexuals are being denided there right of marrige is that the church said it was wrong. That shows that our goverment is controled by the chirstian religion what is ironic because one of the resaons we broke away from England was that we thought that church and state should not mix.
